I love dwarf lillies, one was my very first live plant ever, and has since given me a ton of daughter plants that I've given away or sold.
Java fern on the other hand...I can't grow it unless I wedge it behind rocks and can't actually see it, hahaha

Toss up between hygro species and ludwigia species.
My favorites of each though are H. corymbosa and L. atlantis. Both grow super well for me and become nice, big, full plants, from even having just a single stem.

Altelanthera reineckii-the underside of the leaves are usually dark red and they are (in the proper conditions) always pointing upward.
Bacopa carolina-the copper-ish coloration, the glossy leaves, and how I use it instead of lemongrass for scenting.
Hemianthus callitrichoides-just for that carpet look

I have like 45 plant species in my tank right now... my favorite by far is the Cabomba Furcata. Don't know why. It reminds me of those trees from "The Lorax" animated movie.

Ludwigia Arcuata.
Because it looks great, isn't too hard to grow and it grows fast.

I love anything anubias and java moss. If only I could grow them fast enough. With java moss, I make structures out of sticks and tie the moss on it
